SOMATOM Force
Our Dual Source CT scanner SOMATOM Force supports high levels of image quality to help clinicians in their diagnostic tasks, adapting scanning parameters to offer patients individualized scanning. It is designed to bring clinical excellence and workflow efficiency to your CT procedures.
Key Innovations
Two steps ahead in clinical excellence and workflow performance.
Clinical Excellence
Improve diagnostic accuracy with the unique Vectron™ X-ray tube. Bring image quality to the next level with free-breathing, powerful imaging that freezes motion artifacts.
Workflow Performance
Position patients precisely with FAST Integrated Workflow. The FAST 3D Camera supports fast, accurate positioning, while smart automation adjusts scan parameters to each patient.
Dual Source Technology
Twice as fast as single source scanners. With two sources and a rotation speed of 250 ms, it provides unmatched power, speed, and precision for challenging patients.
FAST Bolus & Contrast Management
Revolutionizes bolus tracking by supporting automated scan trigger delays to improve image quality and show a more uniform contrast attenuation.
